ing is the Governors decision in full In
the Anarchists case.
STATE OF Ills, EXECUTIVE OFFICE,
SPRINGnELD, Nov 10, 1887.
On the 20,h day of August, 1856. in
the Cook County Criminal Court August,
Spies. Albert r. Parsons, Samuel Fielder,
Michael Schwab, Adolph Fischer, George
Engel and Louis Liugg were found guilty
by the verdict of jury, and afterwards
sentenced to be hanged for the murder of
Matthias j. Degan. An appeal was
taken from such finding and sentence to
the Supreme Court OF the State. That
court upon fnal hearing aud after mature
dehberation UNANIMOUSLY affirmed the
Judgment OF the court below. The case
nov comes before me by petition of the
defendants for consideration ss Governor
OF the State. Ii the letters of Albert
Parsons, Adolph Fischer, George Eogel
aud Louis Liugg, demanding uncoodition-
al release, or as they express It, Liberty
or death, aud protesting in the strongest
language against mercy or commutation
OF the sentence pronounced against them,
eau be considered petitions for pardon,
the granting OF the same, il implying any
guilt whatever on the part of either Of
them, would not be such a vindication as
they demand. Executive Intervention
upon the grounds insisted upon by the
four above named persons could in no
proper sense be deemed an exercise of the
constitutional power to grant reprieves,
combinations and pardons unless used
upon the belief on my part OF their entire
innocence OF the crime OF which they
stand convicted. A careful consideration
OF the evidence in the record of the trial
OF the parties as we'll of all alleged and
claimed for them outside OF the record,
has failed to produce on my mind any
impression tending to impeach the ver-
dict OF the jury or the judgment OF the
trial court or OF the Supreme Court af-
utHtuR Tue Ruit VI aii thcse pdttic1.
Satisfied therefore as | am OF their guilt,
am preeluded from considering the
question of Communication of the sentences
of Albert r. Parsons, Adolph Fischer,
George Engel and Louis Lingg to impris-
onment in the penitentiary. as they de-
clare that they will not accept such com
mutation. Samuel Fieldep, Michael
Schwsb and August Spies unite in a Pc
titou for executive clemency." Fielden
aud Schwab, in addition, present sepa-
rate aud supplementary petitions for com
mutation OF their sentences. While, as
ssid above, am satisfied of the guilt of
all the parties as found by the verdict of
the jury, which was sustained by the
judgement e thl courts, most careful
consideration OF the whole sutject leads
mo to the conclusion that the sentence Of
the law as to Samuel Flelden aud Michael
Schwab may be modified AS 10 each Il

1t Receives General approval,

SPRINGFIELD, Nov. l0-The announce
ment of the Governors decision 10 the
Anarchists case spread like wild fire this
evening, and the greatest excitement nat
urally prevailed. Much speculation had
been INDUCED in during the day, and
since noon the impression had been prev.
alent that the sentence of Fielden and
Schwab would be commuted, and possi-
bly, that of Spies or Parsons. The de.
cision cannot be said to have been by any
means a surprise here, and it is no exag-
geratiou to say that the Governors action
meets with general approval.

Have You heard OF the tale OF tho
